You didn't make a cut every 3 seconds, which automatically scores points with me. Also, not buying every single iteration of the same console/game Nintendo spits out every couple of years is smart consumerism. *thumbs up*

Just out of curiosity, what kind of camera did you use, because it looked out of focus for most of the DS parts. If it's an actual camcorder, might not be a bad idea to prefocus it with the LCD screen. Also, if you have a mic, use that, it'll do *wonders* for eliminating ambient noise and making your voice sound as robust as it would irl.

But, yeah, at the expense of letting this degenerate into the class I taught last quarter, I'll skip going into nitpicky stuffs and just say it was a good first vlog. I watched it all the way through, which is a pretty big deal for me when watching vlogs.

It was nice. Maybe a bit long but I guess premiere vlogs can be long.

The first one is always the hardest. Nice job.

I thought it was very good.

I've actually been thinking about video blogging for a while now. First I need to get a camcorder though :P

I love your hair Melonie, it's so pretty! :O

Great vblog!

Thank you. That is very encouraging for me.

The camera I'm using is a Canon Powershot, so video isn't really its specialty, but rather pictures. I only spent $100 on it last year, so it's not anything special, but not too bad. I really do need to try your suggestions, especially with a mic because the sound quality is terrible. Just having trouble getting a mic to work on my laptop. I've tried several different mics, and it won't register either of them, and I'm not sure why. My best guess is that it has something to do with the crappy built in mic it comes with (which isn't even worth using). Perhaps it's conflicting? I'm not sure, but I need to get that fixed, it really would help.

Thanks again for being so encouraging.

I'll be sure to make my future vlogs shorter. Glad you liked it, though.

Thank you so much. That means a lot coming from such a talented vlogger as yourself.

Glad you like it, thank you. And I would love to see some good vlogs from you, so be sure to let us know when you get a camcorder.

Great vblog!

Thanks, hun. You are so sweet and always have such nice things to say, it's very encouraging and I really appreciate it.

Why couldn't I have met a hot artistic nerdy gamer girl when I was 22?

Life is so unfair!

Aww Thank you for the compliments.

Great vid!! You're hella pretty girl!

Not a problem. When I'm not being a negative nancy, it's what I do.

I second this, except I'm only 23, so change it to, "Why can't I be proactive enough to meet... etc."

Yeah.

Oh, right, 'cause I spend all my time on my computers.

nice job! i love your chill personality.

Nice work! I think you'll do great. You have those mesmerizing eyes to keep people from looking away.

Well I'm glad you were so positive with me. Otherwise my next blog may have been of me crying because nobody liked it.

Why thank you, that means a lot to me. I'm a very laid back person, which can be both good or bad depending on the situation.

Aww, thanks so much.

I'm very excited about all this positive feedback, and I look forward to making more vlogs. I'll try to get a new one done by next week.

everything went well until the Steelers fandom... geh... my Jaguars fandom requires that I reject all things Steelers. Really, really like your tablet and you've already shown some of the fantastic stuff you've done with it. Nice video. How about those Bears?

Great first blog!

And seriously what is up with the last weirdos posting in your comments? Voted them down and marked as spam

Oooh, a Jags fan? That automatically makes us rivals.

I can't believe the Bears beat the Steelers, though! We just couldn't get a Field Goal, so crazy! Oh well, we'll make up for it.

Thank you.

And thank you for mentioning that about the comments, I had no idea I could report them as spam or delete them. Youtube noob, here. Thanks again, because some of those comments were just plain weird.

Nice work on your first video blog.
